FRENCHIE FRIDAY: SPRING

Was looking for some springy frenchies to share with you today to celebrate the first day of the new {and hopefully warmer} season!
 --even though it's snowing in the Northeast  *deep breaths*--

My search led me to this adorable wedding inspiration shoot on green wedding shoes.


From GWS
To quote Lauren Peele, the talented photographer behind our next feature, Nothing is quite so dreamy as fluid watercolors, bright pastels, and French Bulldog puppies! 

BRAVO. 
I've been known to paint a frenchie gold {or silver  . . .or black} myself a time or two {or three}


HAPPY FRENCHIE FRIDAY - HAPPY SPRING!

FRENCHIE FRIDAY: WORLD SLEEP DAY

yes, world sleep day is really a thing.  it's part of sleep awareness week. {duh.}
and it's today!  
{ahem, which is ironic since HF stumbled in very late last night and I barely slept at all}

there are few things i love more than sleeping babies & puppies, specifically of the french bulldog variety. 

 these pics of baby austin, sophie, hannah & penny, which went viral a couple of years ago, still make my heart explode.  and if you don't die {figuratively} over these, go get your pulse checked.

I canNOT even.
happy weekend.  
happy sleeping!


ABBY CAPALBO & OTTO

I simply cannot resist the love story between a gal and her dog.  Introducing a new series of posts about just that.  

Starting off with the spotlight on two gorgeous goldens: Abby Capalbo & Otto. 

There is much to admire about Ms. Capalbo- her new style consulting venture & sleek blog,  her general adorableness, I could go on, but of course what draws me to her the most is her obsession with her dog.

Abby was kind enough to share a few favorites about Otto:

My favorite thing about Otto is that he is a complete hooligan. I know, it's a weird thing to love. He's always two steps ahead of me and is horribly mischievous - but it cracks me up. He honestly makes me laugh all day long. I've never known a dog with so much personality. 
His favorite place in our house is wherever we are. He's like a big fluffy shadow. If he had to pick his favorite spot though, it would definitely be our bed. We swore when he was a puppy we would never be "those people" that let our dog sleep in the bed, but he won that battle with his puppy dog eyes. He's spoiled rotten.

he sounds kind of like george.  
except a lot fluffier and not nearly as naughty.  

We are in the early stages of a master suite renovation and I daydream about our future bedroom a greater percentage of the day than I'd like to admit.  So I was wide-eyed {especially for a monday morning} when I saw Miss Abby's post featuring her favorite bedroom color palettes.  One of each, please.

enjoy that beautiful bedroom, Otto! and please keep the pretty posts coming, Abby.

FRENCHIE FRIDAY: GARRETT HEDLUND

That's right, I'm shamelessly using this image of Garrett and a cutie patootie french bulldog {via Esquire} to parlay into a post of multiple images of beautiful Garrett {sans pup}.  
You're welcome.

and here's a clip of Garrett in the BEST worst movie ever.


beau forevs.
